Question 5

中国人的礼貌是什么?

中国人的礼貌给老人很尊重,很客气的。在中国,老师也是个很尊重的人。如果你建一个比你老的人,你因该叫他 ”叔叔“ 还是 “阿姨”。如果要给礼物,很多人一开始都说他们不要。可是,族人间词要客人拿礼物。曹叫曹几次以后,客人就拿礼物。中国人的礼貌是被孔子印象很多。送新年礼物的时候也不要给人送礼不能送钟,因为“送钟”跟“送终”同音。还有呢,新年的时候人们很喜欢穿红,
因为认为红色会让魔鬼吓
跑。人们穿红色,送红包,还防红
色 鞭炮。人们也给亲戚,隔壁拜
年。
Chinese culture is based around respect for the elderly and politeness.If you meet an elderly person, it is polite to introduce them by "uncle", "auntie", or their title. If someone gives a gift to a guest, the guest initially refuses it. However, the host repeatedly tries to ogive the gift to the guest. This back-and-forth continues several times until the guest finally recieves the gift. Confucius influenced Chinese etiquette a lot. During New Years', never give an elderly person a clock, because "giving clocks" sounds the same as "going to [their] burial".
